This post features some of the doors that caught my eye as I walked a few alleys this past week.
below: It was the colour of the plant outside the gate that I liked – It’s almost a perfect match with the colour of the fence.
below: These grey metal doors are a common sight as are metal staircases. Were the boards an attempt at a wall? A hiding place under the stairs?
below: You can get your laundry done in this alley. There is even a bench to sit on while you wait.
below: At first I thought that this was a strange place to put a door. Very awkward! Then I realized that it was probably just an old door that was being used to fill in the gap between the garage and the neighbouring building.
below: An interesting texture
below: And last, another common sight, scrawls on the wall.
It’s been a few months since I did a blog post about doors. If you like doors, you might want to check out a couple of previous posts:
- Spadina Open Doors
- Late doors (of Mt Pleasant cemetery)
If you go to Norm 2.0’s blog feature Thursday Doors, there are links to even more doors that other people have blogged about. Check them out!
